Serena is cramping really badly and Tracy Austin mentions that in these kind of situations, there are players who don't show concern towards their opponent. She then said that Golovin comes to mind during her match against Maria in Miami.

That was nice of you Daniela!

It was good to see Daniela go over to see if she could help. After doing that, she tried to keep herself warmed up by shadowing groundstrokes which is understandable. Daniela is one of the nicest on the tour.

Yeah, I think Maria should've done the same. Oh well.

This shows how mental tennis is. Hantuchova played much better when Serena was healthy.
Afterwards, she played like crap.

Dani should have won this set. She played awful when Serena couldn't move.

Hantuchova was playing like crap from 5-2 on in the second set. She still sucked when Serena got up.

God, your hate with Maria is borderlining obsession. :rolleyes:

Well done to Dani on going over to try and help though. :yeah:

Classy move from Dani.... I think she'd rather play a healthy serena... she played worst after Serena started cramping and I think she was hoping for rain as well....

Hantuchova should be trying to win. If it's acramp, Serena could be fine tomorrow.
So you have to play to win now.

Mary Pierce had a severe injury. So did Golovin. A cramp is different, and Hantuchova has to keep focus,.

I don't hate her. I was just pointing out the obvious.

Yeah, but I think Tracy was trying to point out that "in these kinds of situation (Daniela going over the net to show concern)," the golovin incident comes to mind. So what Daniela did was really professional.

How was she playing well enough to close out the set when she just blew a 5-2 lead.

Bullshit! Serena got the breaker back and levelled the match 5-5 BEFORE she started to cramp. Either be informed THEN comment, or just shut the fuck up.

Edit: :P

I tought it was a classy move from Daniela as well. LMAO at Tracy Austin she only started to root for Serena when she was having cramps. Before that she was talking what Daniela had to do to beat Serena.
